Being an adolescent today can feel like a never-ending race, filled with countless hurdles and obstacles ready to bring you down at any moment. But with time you become stronger, more resilient and you gain a deeper sense of what you’re capable of. Even More Than This is a podcast that explores the - at times - treacherous journey of teenagehood and aims to shed light on the ways in which we can face and overcome the hurdles along the way. Based on the television series More Than This (now available on Paramount Plus), this podcast explores the journey of peer pressures, sexuality, friendships, mental health, relationships, consent, and so much more through the complicated characters and storylines in the show. Being an adolescent can be tough, but the journey shouldn’t be faced alone; let our conversations help you to cruise through the rough seas of growing up. This podcast is created by the ACTF in collaboration with Queer Town. Hosted and written by Anika and Kien-Ling. Produced and edited by Bridget Hanna, ACTF and Archie Beetle, Queer Town. Mixed by Phil Threlfall, The Base. Recorded at State Library Victoria Studio 4.
